New storage solution s for supporting the whole life cycle of a customer s storage systems are split into the following five categories: (1) tiered storage for designing storage system and performing data migration between storage and storage devices using virtual storage; (2) business continuity for constructing environments for remote-copying systems and backup systems; (3) file and content for creating secure storage and access; (4) storage management implementation for supporting implementation of storage-management software; and (5) storage management for supporting management and operation of storage.
2 New Solution Services which Cover the Complete s Life Cycle 98 Working under our uvalue concept, we at, Ltd. are positioning IT systems as the foundation of new value creation as platforms. As for storage platforms, which form the core of these IT systems, a concept known as Services Oriented Solutions has been put forward. Total solutions for unifying solution s, hardware, and software are being proposed. In addition, maximization of business value with the reduction of the TCO (total cost of ownership) of storage in IT systems is being supported. Since July 2007, has been providing solution s centered on s disk array subsystems. At present, we are providing new storage solution s that cover the entire life cycle of storage systems; that is, s that cover not only s (storage area networks) but also content archives and NAS (network-attached storage) (see Fig. 1). The rest of this report describes the new storage solution s that are being provided in the Japanese market. CHARACTERISTICS OF NEW STORAGE SOLUTION SERVICES With our new storage solution s, it is easy to reconfigure a customer s system in a manner that is easy to understand from the customer s viewpoint. Moreover, our new storage solution s provide a menu for each phase of the discovery of a customer s storage system, namely, discovery of systems and equipment used in a customer s storage system and analysis of system design, system implementation, system operation, and future systems. By applying s adapted to each customer it is possible to support the entire storage system life cycle from system planning, design, implementation, operation, and future growth (see Fig. 2). REQUIREMENTS FOR NEW STORAGE SOLUTION SERVICES Service Category: Tiered With the s in the Tiered category, a configuration for a storage system appropriate for each customer is provided through the following procedure: investigation and analysis on existing-storage-system configuration, proposal of the suggested configuration obtained from the results of these investiagations, and design and deployment of the proposed configuration (see Fig. 3).

Given that, analysis from viewpoints like usability improvement of disk resourses and system extendability is performed. In addition, storage integration is planned using the external-storageconnection function and the volume-virtualization function of. Lastly tiered storage layers are designed. The results of these procedures are then estimated and measured. At the same time as the analysis results are presented to the customer, a recommended configuration for a new storage system is proposed. (2) tiered storage design & implementation As for designing and implementation of new configurations, more detailed design (based on about the proposed connection configration and hardware configuration) as well as implementation according to design are executed. Specific connections between servers, switches, and storage are designed and implemented. This includes zoning and virtualization of the FCSWs (Fibre Channel switches) as well as correspondence between volume and servers. (3) data migration Rapid and secure migration of data from existing configurations to new configurations is carried out. By means of these s in the tiered storage category, storage systems that suit the level of importance of customers data and that effectively utilize existing storage resources are designed and implemented. As a result, it is possible to group data in the optimum places and cut costs involved in storage systems. Service Category: Management As for the category termed storage management, once implementation of the proposed system is completed, operation of customer systems starting actual activities is monitored, and in the case that any trouble occurs, detailed analysis is done and the analysis results are reported (see Fig. 4).
